I was nervous about staying at the Shoreline Inn because my sister in law made all the plans and she said we wouldn't be staying in a big name hotel. But as we pulled in the parking lot I knew everything would be ok because it was AAA approved. It was absolutely charming. You have a great view of the... more

This place had great beach access and was very dog friendly - our two top priorities for our weekend stay. Our room was very clean and comfortable. The beds were very firm, but we like it that way. The fridge and microwave were handy and we enjoyed sitting on the balcony. The TV remote didn't work so great, but it... more

On the outside this motel looks charming. When we went to the first room, which was downstairs on the beach side, we almost turned and ran. A one star rating is all it would merit, and the worst part was that any ocean view is totally blocked by an outside ugly brick retaining wall. But the upstairs is a different... more

We just returned from our second stay at the Shoreline Inn. We werent quite as thrilled this time, but its still an excellent place to stay. The rooms are clean and orderly. The staff is pleasant and helpful. And the view is to die for. My only complaint was that because we had a child with us this time, we... more

Not the most deluxe accommodations (bare-bones minimum bathroom, poorly laid out room). The carpet was in serious need of replacement too. We were able to have our two dogs with us, which was the big attraction of this place, other than the close beach access. To our surprise, there is a fabulous restaurant just across the street (called Hoppe's). It's... more

Last minute change to stay at the oceanview lodge on our way back from Joshua National Park to San Francisco, it was difficult to find good lodging with availability so we took a chance with Shoreline Inn. We stayed in room 120 and it was clean; however, my bed was bad (may be too old) and gave me backaches following... more

This motel was booked directly over the phone with the motel. The reservationist sold us a 2nd floor ocean view room (1st dishonest statement). As this was our 25 year anniversary, we were very excited to stay in a small beach town in a motel with an ocean view. Upon arriving, we were given our room #118 on the first... more

We welcome all comments regarding our property because we are confident of the service that we provide. We regret that this matter could not be resolved t the guest satisfaction.I do believe it was miscommunication with this individual. If our property was as she states, we would not have a business that has been family owned for over 26 years.We...

What a beatiful view! Our room was huge, clean and centrally located. The staff was friendly too. My little dog was very welcome. Right ON the beach. Perfect! I can't wait to go back. This was my first time visiting Cayucos. Very quaint little town, great antique shops, But the Shoreline Inn was the jewel in the crown! more

Our plane landed in San Francisco on a cool, crisp day in March. We rented a car and drove down HWY 1 to Cayucos and the Shoreline Inn. The view from the second floor was excellent! It provided us with an unobstructed view of the ocean and the Cayucos pier. The Inn has a grassy courtyard with picinc area and... more
